As you saw Jan already merged the mergable patches (up to 10 I believe). The rest will take some time to review. I need to discuss this with Tim and also look at the patches to get a feel for: - What is the risk of it introducing regressions for existing use-cases. - What is the risk if these features do not make it in Xen 4.5 (What are the external impacts of this - what are the sub-projects that depend on this). - What is the awesomes of this. As in, how will this feature make Xen more awesome. - How easy is it for somebody to set this up and test it out? Thank you! > > Thanks, > Tamas
